This monograph discusses the Zohar, the most important book of the
Kabbalah, as a late strata of the Midrashic literature. The author
concentrates on the 'expanded' biblical stories in the Zohar and on
its relationship to the ancient Talmudic Aggadah. The analytical
and critical examination of these biblical themes reveals aspects
of continuity and change in the history of the old Aggadic story
and its way into the Zoharic corpus. The detailed description of
this literary process also reveals the world of the authors of the
Zohar, their spiritual distress, mystical orientations, and
self-consciousness.
